The Nintendo GameCube is a sixth generation home console that was created and released by Nintendo. It was first released in 2001 in Japan and the Americas, and then in 2002 in Europe and Australia. It is the first Nintendo console where the games are stored on optical discs, more specifically miniDVDs.
Games[edit]
Three The Legend of Zelda games, two compilations, and two crossover games were released for the GameCube. It is the home console with the most The Legend of Zelda games. Other flagship titles for the GameCube, such as Luigi's Mansion and Star Fox Adventures, have similar gameplay to the 3D The Legend of Zelda games.
Both crossovers include the Nintendo 64 game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as one of the games. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is the first The Legend of Zelda game that was released for the GameCube. Super Smash Bros. Melee is the first GameCube game with The Legend of Zelda-related content, including Link as a playable character. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is the last The Legend of Zelda game to be released for the GameCube, although it was also released on Wii.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker's graphics are cel-shaded, making it a departure from the realistic graphics of the Nintendo 64 game, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. At Spaceworld 2000, there was a tech demo showing Link and Ganondorf fighting, which makes it the first The Legend of Zelda-related showcase for the console. It has not been adapted into a GameCube game, and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess retains the realistic graphics of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time but is altogether a separate project from the tech demo.[1]
Accessories[edit]
Nintendo GameCube–Game Boy Advance Link Cable[edit]
The Nintendo GameCube-Game Boy Advance Link Cable allows for a Game Boy Advance to be connected to the Nintendo GameCube. This peripheral is required to do multiplayer on The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures. In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, the Link Cable allows the player to use the Tingle Tuner.
Game Boy Player[edit]
The Game Boy Player is an add-on peripheral released in 2003. It allows players to play Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance titles from the GameCube and thus on a television screen. With the peripheral and The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition, the player can play every game of The Legend of Zelda main series up to The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
